Podcast: EP 12 Expectation Hangover with Christine Hassler

Podcast: EP 12 Expectation Hangover with Christine Hassler

by | Dec 3, 2019 | Love, Podcast, Relationships

If you’re looking for guidance around unmet expectations, here it is.

 

I am so excited to share this honest, empowering, insightful conversation with my dear sister friend Christine Hassler. Christine and I met years ago through our work, and it is such a gift every time I talk with her.

Christine Hassler is a best-selling author, keynote speaker, master coach, and podcast host who is committed to guiding people and organizations into their highest potential. She left her successful job as a Hollywood agent at 25 to pursue a life she could be passionate about . . . but it did not come easily. After being inspired by her own unexpected challenges and experiences, she realized her journey was indeed her destination.

Today, she supports individuals in answering the questions: “Who Am I, What do I want, and How do I get it?” Christine is a master coach who combines life coaching with the principles of spiritual psychology. She is passionate about supporting people out of suffering and limitation and into fulfillment. 

This conversation is about relationships, self-compassion, letting go of “personal development arrogance” and so much more. I took several notes for myself from it and I hope you do too.

The first law of spirit is acceptance.

Podcast: EP 6 When Dreams Change Course with Chad Hymas

Podcast: EP 6 When Dreams Change Course with Chad Hymas

by | Oct 22, 2019 | Challenge, Podcast

What happens when your life goes drastically different than you planned?

I am bringing you a very special episode today – a conversation with my dear friend, more like a brother, Chad Hymas.

In 2001, at the age of 27, Chad’s life changed in an instant when a 2,000 pound bale of hay shattered his neck, leaving him a quadriplegic. But Chad’s dreams were not paralyzed that day – he became an example of what is possible.

Chad inspires, motivates, and moves audiences, creating an experience that touches hearts for a lifetime. He is one of the youngest ever to receive the Council of Peers Award for Excellence and to be inducted into the prestigious National Speaker Hall of Fame.

Chad is an incredible perspective check for anyone who is struggling with challenges, has had a devastating loss, or is wondering if their dreams are even possible. I am so grateful for his generous words and heart, and I know you’ll be uplifted through whatever you’re going through after listening to him.

There is more than one way to accomplish a dream.

Podcast: EP 4 Willpower Doesn’t Work with Benjamin Hardy

Podcast: EP 4 Willpower Doesn’t Work with Benjamin Hardy

by | Oct 8, 2019 | Goals, Podcast, Success

Willpower doesn’t work (at least not how you think it does.)

 

I love hearing my friend Benjamin speak about habits, goals, and psychology. He is one of the most-researched, best writers on these topics, and every time we talk, I learn something new.

Benjamin is an organizational psychologist and bestselling author of Willpower Doesn’t Work.

His work is viewed by millions of people monthly and featured on Forbes, Fortune, CNBC, Cheddar, Big Think, and many others. He is a regular contributor at Inc. andPsychology Today. 

From 2015 to 2019, his email list grew to nearly 400,000 people (without paid advertising) by blogging on Medium.com.

In this conversation, Benjamin explains why willpower isn’t the most effective way to change habits, what works instead, and how our personalities aren’t permanent. Get ready to take notes because I sure did!

When you change your context, you change yourself.
